#### Auto Feature Command Buttons

Move To button

This moves the field of view in the Graphic Display window and centers it on the current feature's XYZ location.

In some cases, such as a Vector Point, the XYZ location is actually offset along the normal vector by the pre-hit value. This prevents the probe from crashing into the part.

If a feature is composed of more than one point (such as a line), then clicking this button switches between the points making up the feature.

Test button

This tests a feature's creation and previews its dimensional data before it's actually created. It performs a measurement using the current parameters.

WARNING: When you do this, the machine moves. To avoid injury, stay clear of the machine. To avoid hardware damage, run the machine at a slower speed.

You can change parameters and click Test repeatedly until you have an acceptable measurement. Then when you click Create, the software converts the temporary feature into a normal feature in the measurement routine.

Create button

This inserts the defined Auto Feature into the Edit Window at the current position.

Close button

This closes the Auto Feature dialog box.

Show Advanced Measurement Options button

This extends the Auto Feature dialog box and displays any available advanced measurement options. The button then changes to the Hide Advanced Measurement Options button.

Hide Advanced Measurement Options button

This shortens the Auto Feature dialog box and only shows the basic options for that auto feature. The button then changes to the Show Advanced Measurement Options button.

Show Extended Sheet Metal Measurement Options button

For supported features, this displays the Extended Sheet Metal Options area. The button then changes to Hide Extended Sheet Metal Measurement Options button.

Hide Extended Sheet Metal Measurement Options button

This hides the Extended Sheet Metal Options area. The button then changes to the Show Extended Sheet Metal Measurement Options button.
